THE DART Class Prophecy RUTH SWEDENBORG 12 OOI) afternoon, Mrs. Schmidt. Is’nt it a lovclv day. I’ve been up to the city, shopping. Yes, I just got back on this four o’clock train. You looked so cool and comfortable here I thought I’d stop and rest awhile. Whom do you suppose I met at the station? You can’t guess? Well, it was George Leaphart. I was so surprised to sec him. He is a traveling salesman for the Headless Tack Company. My train pulled into the station soon after so I didn’t get time to have a good talk with him. I hurried on to the train to get a good seat. I do love to sit next to the window where I can look out. don’t you? I was hoping 1 would have the scat to myself, but soon 1 became aware of someone inquiring if the seat beside me was taken. I looked up and there stood Martha Eckelberry. “No, her name is no longer Eekelberrv. Don’t you remember how she went to college and fell head over heels in love with some college chap? Yes. and eloped before the year was over. Her father forgave her and now she’s living, 1 think she said, in New Lvnie. “By the way. did you know that James McNamara is pitching for the Naps. No? I noticed that the sporting page gave a very enthusiastic account of the no-hit game he pitched yesterday. “Yes, it is tiresome shopping. I was so fortunate to-dav. tho. When I went to select my suit I happened to see Marguerite Brooks. She is head saleslady in the suit department. She helped me choose my suit. I do hate to do it alone, don’t you? Afterward, while walking down the main street I saw a sign over one of the doors, ‘Madame Louise Stewart Hairdressing.’ I went right over and had Louise do my hair up in the latest style. O, do you like it? Yes. I think she is just suited for the work. “Isn’t it funny how many old friends you meet in the city. I met Lillian Olin and, she went to lunch with me. She's a book agent. I believe she is selling that latest novel ‘My Second Wife’s First Husband’s Perfections Compared with Mine,’ written by Donald Mitchell. I never knew Don was of a literary turn of mind, did you? As I was saying, Lil and I went to lunch together. Where do you suppose we went? To Audley Blake’s new restaurant. I’d advise you to go there when you are in the city. “Why there goes Lyman Boynton. Are you going to hear him speak tonight? Yes, lie is to give a lecture on Women’s Rights. I suppose lie hopes to get the women to support him when he is nominated for President. I hear that Anna Rogers is going to speak on the same subject. She is getting to be a very noted suffragette, isn’t she? And Anna Davino is also supporting the cause. “Did you know that Herbert Forsythe is traveling with a circus? Yes, he is a tight-ropc walker. I hear the circus is to perform here soon. Jay Taylor is traveling with the same show. He gives public exhibitions with an airship every afternoon. 21
